Remember that delightfully dark world where you dug graves by day, performed dubious autopsies by night, and constantly schemed against the local Bishop? The cult-hit management sim Graveyard Keeper is getting a full-fledged sequel, and it’s already live on Steam with its first official trailer!
Note: Graveyard Keeper 2 does not currently have a confirmed release date.
Used for editorial and informational purposes only.
This time around, you’re not just some lowly groundskeeper. You’ve been promoted to the powerful (and slightly terrifying) role of Grand Inquisitor. Your mission has escalated from managing a single graveyard to nothing less than saving the entire kingdom from a full-blown zombie apocalypse.
Graveyard Keeper 2 takes the core gameplay of the original and expands it in epic new directions:
Rebuild the Town:
Step into the heart of a ravaged settlement and help its citizens rebuild their lives. By completing quests across the city, you’ll turn their desperate crises into your strategic opportunities—a perfect blend of community service and shrewd, medieval capitalism.
Lead an Undead Army Into Battle:
Yes, you read that right! The sequel introduces a brand-new combat layer. You’ll construct defensive towers, forge powerful weapons and armor, and then lead your very own army of “not-so-bright” zombies into battle to secure victory and defend your territory.
Automate Your Macabre Business:
Why do manual labor when you have an endless supply of undead workers? A new automation system lets you put your zombie laborers to work behind the scenes, handling all the grunt work so you can focus on what really matters: scaling up your booming, post-apocalyptic enterprise.
True to its roots, Graveyard Keeper 2 doubles down on the series’ signature blend of absurdist humor, bizarre characters, and twisted storytelling. Players will explore a charming yet chaotic pixel-art world filled with even more outrageous gameplay and narrative choices than before. The game seamlessly blends adventure, RPG, and simulation elements into one cohesive, darkly comedic package.
The best part? The game is incredibly accessible. With modest system requirements—running on as little as a GTX 640 or HD 7750—it’s ready for just about anyone to jump in.
Graveyard Keeper 2 is being developed by Lazy Bear Games and published by tinyBuild, the same team behind the original hit. It’s confirmed for PC (via Steam). While a specific release date is still under wraps, you can add it to your Steam wishlist now to get notified the moment it launches.
So, are you ready to trade your shovel for a scepter and build an empire on the backs of the undead? The zombie problem is about to become your most profitable business venture yet!
